A National Lottery player has won a £12million jackpot in a second “incredible” scoop in just one week
Saturday’s draw produced one fortunate player who matched all six main numbers.
The same draw also created three further millionaires.
Each correctly selected five numbers plus the bonus ball to claim £1million apiece.
It caped a remarkable week for lottery players, coming just days after a separate winner took home £7.8million in Wednesday’s “must be won” draw.
In total, four new millionaires were minted from Saturday’s results alone.
Wednesday’s upcoming draw will offer an estimated jackpot of £2million, according to lottery operator Allwyn.
Andy Carter, Allwyn’s senior winners’ adviser, described the back-to-back jackpot wins as “incredible”.
